Outstanding, bold, superb variety with enormous striking, leaves, funnel shaped, puckering and an intense glaucous blue. These can reach up to 30cm x 28cm each and they form a dense mound. Tall, erect, dense spikes of pale lavender to white flowers appear above the leaves in mid-summer giving an added attraction and even more height making it a truly impressive plant. This variety really makes a bold statement, and rarely suffers from slug damage. Very hardy.
Hostas make ideal ground cover plants for sun or partial shade and once established can be left undisturbed for years. They thrive in well-drained but moisture retentive soils and this should be enriched with well rotted compost or leaf-mould. The foliage is most attractive and in the summer the plants are crowned with racemes of nodding trumpet-like flowers which are attractive to bees and other pollinating insects. They are also good planted in pots and containers. The foliage will die down in the winter then re-shoot in the spring. Height & Spread 1m x 60-1m (3 x 2-3ft)
